Trained, awake, splenectomized dogs (n = 17) were studied to examine potential mechanisms for early hyperglycemia after hemorrhage (H). Animals were surgically prepared under halothane-nitrous oxide 3 days before the experiment. Chronic catheters were placed aseptically in the portal vein (PV), femoral vein, and femoral artery. Electromagnetic flow probes were placed around the PV and hepatic artery. After an overnight fast, dogs were hemorrhaged 10, 20, or 30% of their estimated blood volume in 3 min. Flow measurements and blood samples for glucose (G), immunoreactive insulin (IRI), immunoreactive glucagon (IRG), catecholamines (C), and cortisol (F) were taken prior to H and from 5 min to 8 h post-H. Plasma IRI, IRG, and F were measured by radioimmunoassay, plasma C by high-pressure liquid chromatography, and G by a glucose oxidase method. Peripheral G did not change after 10% H but increased significantly after 20 and 30% H from 10 min to 2 h. Similarly, peripheral C did not change after 10% H but increased significantly from 10 min to 2 h after 20 and 30% H. In contrast, the portal venous delivery of IRG did not increase significantly until at least 1 h after any magnitude of H. Peripheral IRI did not change after any magnitude of H. However, portal venous delivery of IRI decreased significantly from 20 min to 6 h after 10% H. Plasma F increased significantly in peripheral blood after all magnitudes of H. These results indicate that an increase in the release of IRG occurs too late to account for the early hyperglycemia that occurs during the 1st h following H.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
